finings

[M.K. Jeeves]

Out of curiosity, what finings do you guys use if any? I recently started using Super Kleer. It made a world of difference, however it is a bit pricey. Is there something on the cheap which does a good job?

I buy irish moss in 1 lb bags from NB. Cheap and reliable.

Bulk Irish moss is the way to go.

Hmm. I didn't know they sell it in bulk. I checked my catalog and only see something called super moss available in bulk in a jar?

I use supermoss. Great stuff. It is powdered whirlfloc instead of tablet form. It is finely ground carageenan, which is to say that it is ground up irish moss.
